Default 1/4 mile, top speed?

i havent took my car to the track yet but i did have it at 120 mph, i couldnt hold it out anylonger cause my exit waz like 1/8 mile ahead, wuts the top speed for an 98 ls five speed. the only mod i have now is intake, and i put the 15 inch rims off my old car in the sig on the teg, looks good but too small.

"soon to come" shit shouldn't be in your sig...


but anyway, the highest I've been in my teg is 118 mph...only once. It's not safe or smart to do that.

I'm guessing non vtec will be in that range, I've hard of b18c tegs going up to 140-145 mph.

top speed with lots of room is probably somewhere near 130-140.

your trap speed is going to be way under 100 if your doing the quarter.

I have had my car up to 130 and could have gotten it higher with the room. It took a whole lot of room to just get to that.

120 in my car doesnt feel like it should, its smooth, and since i have no exhaust, just intake, it feels like im goin like 85, here in florida, on the highway you average 85 or you will get ran over. grannies pass you at 90

in my old car in my sig. 85 would feel super fast cause it waz small and the engine would be revin high with the exhaust and intake, plus the struts are bad so it waz ridin like a steel station wagon on a bumpy road with shot suspension, makes ya sick, but that car it only topped out at 100 and that waz down hill with back wind, and the overdrive off.lol, yes that is sad, but in my integra its like so smooth at those speeds.

~125mph back when I was young, dumb, and unaware of the fact that sneezing or having a spontaneous erection at that speed = certain death.

this is stock tho right? I think i heard that our ecu's severely limit our max speed, and changing our ecu's and incorporating something like monitoring your engine with a chip/laptop allows you to change this or something i think.

ive hit 130mph before, but i backed off as soon as i realized how fast i was going on the fwy. my old roommate claimed he hit 140mph and held it for a couple minutes in his LS, but i wasnt there to see it so oh well. and top speed "testing" is pretty stupid and lame in my opinion.
